So You've Had Your Single's Breakfast. Do You Still Have Room for Girl Dinner?

Now, mister, that’s a misogynistic thing to say. Jim Beam is a two way street lol.

I never said he doesn't have bad taste in guys too. But the girls don't gossip to me about how he led them astray. Guys do.

You might try to make some cinnamon toast for breakfast! I got this recipe from a church cookbook (men's only section)! So make it at your own risk.

• Take a single slice of bread (your choice) and place five pats of butter on each slice. The pats must be placed – one in each corner, and one in the middle. Think of the pattern made by throwing a single dice that came up five.​
• Sprinkle liberally with cinnamon and sugar!​
• Place under broiler until bread is toasted to your liking.​
• Never user more than 15 slices of bread for one meal!​

Enjoy!

Well I have long said that I cook for one (week at a time). And it's true my menus are created weekly so it'll be something like tacos means I have a whole thing of 8 or 10 flour tortillas, shred a block of sharp cheddar, brown a couple pounds of ground beef, maybe some other fixings, and eat like 2 tacos a day every weekday. Or a big roast (or tongue or heart) or pot of soup/stew (yay slow cooker). Burgers, big salads, one skillet meals (usually involving tomatoes and italian seasoning).

This week is hot dogs and ham. Next week is bacon and corned beef. (I'm trying to go mostly carnivore for lent (which I realize is backwards of "normal" but I wanna get healthy and that's a low carb low sugar plan I can get behind) so right now it's pretty much all meat in one form or another).

This year I started a tradition of making the equivalent of sausage mcmuffin with egg at home for weekend breakfasts and my go to emergency food has been pizza (usually a couple frozen digiorno's in the freezer for such emergencies). And those are most of my current food habits, but one look at me would let anyone know I eat well most of the time.

I bake a pizza once a week and it is good for three dinners.
I cook a pasta dish once a week and it is good for at least two dinners and a snack.
The pizza and pasta ingredients are almost identical, except the pizza has more and different types of cheeses.

I have found it best not to store up food in my fridge or freezer. More often than not it simply goes to waste.

What I eat on my days off is quite different from days I work, since on my days off I go out for coffee and buy a breakfast burrito at the same time, which I have hours later for brunch, since I do not eat breakfast per se. That is when and where I have started getting my pizza/pasta ingredients also, as they have freshly roasted sliced chicken breast, crumbled feta, and sliced red, orange, and yellow peppers as part of their salad bar set up, even at 8 in the morning. Today I also bought some pumpkin seeds mixed with thinly sliced almonds, plus craisins, for a snack. That was very economic compared to everything else. They always lift the lid to look and see what it is, probably because it is so light? I dunno. I do wonder. I mean, I have been a fairly regular shopper there for decades. Still, they peek, even after I have told them what it is. LOL. At work I normally have a chicken soup with thickly sliced toasted sour dough for brunch. Trying to get more variety into my diet does not work well, and I am averse to food prep any more beyond fashioning a pizza or cooking pasta. I had a slice of pizza when I got home from work yesterday, and part of a leftover vegetable samosa from dinner with my daughter and her aunt on Sunday. After a rather lengthy nap I ate my second piece of pizza for the evening. Tonight is two more pieces of pizza; tomorrow and Friday will be pasta. Last Friday I thought it would be nice to have corn chips with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole as a meal, something I had not done for a while. I finished off the sour cream and guacamole with my burrito this morning. There are a lot of things I cannot safely eat any more since my surgeries 4-5 years ago. My body just does not function normally any more, and that's all she wrote...

I know what you mean, I remember the days I used to sit down and finish off an entire family meal, it would be like 3 medium 3 topping pizzas, 2 L pop, mc cain cake, ceasar salad, 10 wings and garlic bread. I don't think I could do that any more.
